Statement From Bob Ehrlich Regarding Revenue Collections


ANNAPOLIS – Bob Ehrlich released the following statement regarding the Comptroller of Maryland’s Fiscal Year 2010 budget closeout numbers.

“The Comptroller of Maryland this week released Maryland’s revenue collections for Fiscal Year 2010, including the news that Maryland endured its third worst revenue collection in more than forty years. Governor O’Malley considered the Comptroller’s announcement ‘great.’ I expect better, and so should Marylanders.

“With $8 billion in deficits looming on the horizon, the best way to fix Maryland’s structural budget deficit is to create new private sector jobs, lower the tax burden on families and entrepreneurs so they can invest and innovate, and eliminate wasteful spending in government.”
